It is a beautiful day in Florence, Italy as we arrived to begin our adventure at ths 90th anniversary of the MIDA event. This event is to promote and educate through showcasing the many talented artists from Italy and around the world.
Luckily we met up with Anna Esposito and Maria D'Anna to have for helpers, as well as bringing my own family for setting up our booth.
Security was intense and we needed to show our passes just to get inside the Fortezza da Basso. For those of us that are unfamilar with the Medici Fortress, it is the fortress of San Giovanni Battista or a.k.a. Fortezza da Basso where Renaissance and contemporary architecture comes together within the walls of Florence.
We got busy and started to unpack our dolls when Claudia Raddi showed up. She was gracious enough to be our point of contact for those unable to attend but still wanted their dolls in the event. So glad we had this opportunity with her doing this!
Which meant more dolls to unpack. What a beautiful variety of mediums and styles the IADR has to offer through the talents of our artists from Fiber Arts to Sculpted Clay.
It is official, the International Art Doll Registry is ready now that we have our banner hung.
Here is a sneak peek into the booth. Loredana Salvo, Elizabetta Bernardi, and Maria Ciobanu all came to help. Things have been busy and steady at the booth. Find out for yourself by stopping by and saying hello. Otherwise we are happy to share our adventure with you by watching the video below.
